BMW E36 M3 Couoe Sunroof Removal.
The headliner in my E36 M3 started deteriorating, so I needed to remove the outer metal panel in order to get to the inner panel that has the headliner on it. None of the tutorials I saw online really seemed to match what I was seeing in my car, which is a 1998. Either way, I came up with a slightly different method than what I’ve seen online and figured I’d share it here.
Basically, I was unable to get the fabric panel to slide backwards as so many Suggested that I could do once the roof was tilted or partially tilted, so I simply tilted the sunroof up, and used a T-25 torque bit driver to remove the two screws that hold the front corners of the metal panel. Then, with the roof still tilt...

1986 Peugeot 505 Turbo - Cruise Control Fixed!

The cruise control actuator on my 505 Turbo failed a little while back, and I have been unable to find a replacement.

1970 MGB Rear Main Seal Replacement
Просмотров 1882 месяца назад
In the process of readying the engine out of my parts car to go back into my friend’s 1970 MGB, I decided it would be prudent to check the rear main seal, so I separated the transmission and engine, removed the clutch, removed the flywheel, and removed the rear main seal retainer plate and the seal itself. Upon separating the engine and transmission it was immediately obvious that there had bee...
1998 BMW E36 M3 - Muddy sound from the rear speakers
Просмотров 702 месяца назад
I have a 1998 BMW M3 that has the Harman Kardon stereo. A previous owner upgraded at least the rear speakers with units from Bacsound. I can’t say for certain about the others. When playing music it’s really doesn’t sound particularly good. Id even say it sounds muddy. If you put the fader to the front, it sounds pretty good, though obviously lacking in bass notes because all of the speakers up...

1966 Rover 2000TC - Oil Leak at Front of Engine
Просмотров 123 месяца назад
My early Rover P6 2000TC predates the addition of PCV. It’s leaking oil at the front of the engine, and I’m wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction to where the oil might be leaking out. It’s a bit tough to track down because the fan seems to blow everything around quite a bit, but it sure would be nice to get this sealed up a bit better.
1966 Rover 2000TC - AC Fuel Pump Disassembled
Просмотров 74 месяца назад
A quick overview of the AC mechanical fuel pump on the Rover 2000 TC. It started leaking recently, dripping onto the ground, so I sourced a rebuild kit. The gaskets in the kit don’t quite look right to seal the pump to the engine, but I’m sure I can make something work. The old diaphragm is definitely degraded by ethanol, and there’s a fair amount of grit and/or silt in the pump body, so it’s n...

1970 MGB Engine - Oil Pump Scoring
Просмотров 475 месяцев назад
This MGB  engine had problems with oil pressure. It was unclear as to whether this was a problem with actual oil pressure or a bad gauge reading. There wasn’t a lot of metal in the oil pan when I removed it, but I removed the oil pump today and it is heavily scored and otherwise shows signs of lots of metal debris being Pumped through it. Now to try and determine if the issue is something that...

I see worst
Like what?
@@TomRymes can't even put ur fingers through anything
Kiehn Dale
So true🤣
Wow, I think that's the most worn parts I've ever seen come out of anything...
Hey, Tom! Been loving the Tempting Fate Tours channel and just stumbled across your channel. Can't wait to watch through everything. Love the MGB content and I actually learned to drive in a Toyota Celica very similar to the one you're working on. Thanks for posting!
Thanks, Stephen! This engine, after much delay, ended up in the car the other day and will hopefully be running today. Fingers crossed!
All vehicles need this design.
i learned to drive in an identical car
This is shown in the Jowett Javelin owners instruction booklet.
Thank you. I'll have to locate a copy.
I have a 1950 r me with a stuck engine at present. Good to hear a. Riley sound happy motoring
Thanks for posting. It's helpful just to see stuff that you can't see with the front instrument panel there
Where did you source your parts? I need dashboard stuff for mine.
The Facebook groups can be a good source of parts, as can eBay. Check out “Old School Celica Club” to start. What dashboard items do you need?
@@TomRymes that silver plate that sorounds tachometer, radio, etc,. Also need radio and that rounded part that goes to the left of the radio, might be a clock? Was hoping to be able to send a picture but it won’t let me.
@@manuelpaz7234the entire “silver” section of the dash is a single piece of plastic with a fake brushed stainless look decal on it. GT had the silver stainless decal, while ST had fake wood. Definitely keep an eye on eBay and join the various groups on Facebook.
A real gt has an electronic fuel pump
Please elaborate. This car was definitely a US-Model Celica GT. I can’t speak to models sold in other markets as a GT.
@@TomRymes in the US all GT cars came out with an electronic fuel pump , 120 cluster seems that yours has a speedo change and a gt badge i use to do this all the time
@@rtrmasterrtr2599 Sounds like you are confusing this car, which is a 1978 model year, with later cars. Considering that the law requiring 85 MPH speedometers wasn’t passed until September 1979 (more than a year AFTER this car was built), the presence of an 85 MPH speedometer would be suspicious, not the other way around. As for an electric fuel pump, there was no difference between the powerplants for North American GT and ST cars, so no reason for different fuel pumps. Perhaps you are thinking of the later cars fitted with the 22R engine, or even the next generation? Do keep in mind that this is a California emissions car, so that might explain some differences, too.
@@TomRymes no not at all maybe your confused and yours does have an electric pump ?? Ive owned over 30 of those cars definetely not confused
@@TomRymes plus i live in cali im telling you we use to raid the junkyards for gt trim for all st's from 78-81 and yes there is absolutely no differense in performance ,engine is the same boat anchor
this generation of Celica didn't sell much not only in my country, Greece, but in Europe in general...I guess it sold well in the US and Canada, maybe also in the rest of the world except Europe...and the next Celica generation, from 1981 till 1985 didn't sell well in Europe either...in fact only three Celica generations sold well in Europe, the 1970-1977 generation, the 1989-1993 generation and the 1999-2006 generation...
That is one cool 😎 dash
Just wondering do you still have it???
I don’t, I sold it two years ago. This video was for the auction on Bring A Trailer.
I had a 1971 Celica. I had a 1971 Corolla baby blue 4 speed had the 2 TC motor
thank you sir! appreciate the straight forward video!
The American GT is a decaffeinated Celica. The Celica GT for Europe came with a 18R-G engine, a much better engine.
And, yet, it’s still a very good car.
They have hydraulic tappets way advanced at that time , they sold the patent to Rolls Royce . I know this because I use to two people who worked there, including my mum in the offices.
Thank you, Stewart. My understanding is that the Jowetts used Lockheed hydraulic tappets, which were licensed from an American company - it’s just unclear which one.
UPDATE: we pulled both half-shafts and found them to be completely intact. We then pulled the diff out of the axle and it was spectacularly broken with damage to every single component. My working theory is that it may have been run dry at some point, and the bearing gave out, causing a piece of metal to bind in the crown and pinion.
You aways need to carry two things when you drive a classic English cat, 2 carrots and a wire coat hanger, you can whittle new axles out of the carrots and in an emergency, you can make a new crankshaft out of the wire coast hanger.
It is very easy to remove the drive shafts after you remove the rear wheels. If one is broken you will probably have to remove the differential from the axle in order to get the broken piece out of the spline in the differential sun wheel. This is also quite an easy job: half shafts out, drain axle oil, disconnect propshaft from rear flange, undo the bolts that hold the final drive and differential in the axle casing, and pull the assembly out.
Thanks for the detail. That’s what we expected to do, but it turns out that we exploded the diff in a spectacular manner. Must have been the impressive brawn of the 803cc engine.
In the mid 1980’s we had 2 of these with 5 speed manuals on our driveway. A black on black interior‘78 GT lift-back with a rare sunroof and a green on tan interior ‘79 GT lift back. Both with manual steering - however the ratios were different. the '79 had less turns lock to lock and was nearly impossible to steer unless you were moving. The '78 was easier. The '78 had a 125 mph speedo while the '79 went only to 85. Both cars were incredibly reliable. The '78 had well over 100k miles at that time. I took my driving test in the green one back in ‘84. Both had the 20R 90 hp 2.2L engine and ran on Unleaded. My first car was a ‘76 Toyota Corona with the same engine. It didn’t have the catalytic converter and produced 96 hp on regular leaded gas.
My older sister got one, a 1978 lift back model after she graduated from high school. I took my first driving exam to get my license in it. It was an automatic so it wasn’t too hard to pass the exam. It’s great to see an example of car that I remember from my younger days in such great condition. Enjoy your Celica.
I grew up with a 1978 Toyota Celica GT Liftback. Learned to drive on it. It served the family well for nearly 40 years, until I had kids of my own, and learned that the 1978 design doesn't work for modern car seats. I had to get rid of it soon thereafter. PBS station was happy. But I miss it.
I had one! Dark Brown…loved that car!!

Thank you so much for creating this video. Awesome! It brings back memories. 🙂
I had the same exact car except mine was dark brown…just telling my wife it was my favorite car!!!👍👍
Greetings. omg. fantastic traveler, have a great day- 😇
I have owned several of these Skylarks. In fact I had an 84 Skylark sedan that had this color paint and the same color and fabric in the interior. I like these cars a lot. This has a few paint blemishes, but overall it's pretty decent!
Thanks for posting this - very clear view of the heater area. It is difficult to see and understand when everything is in place.
Hey man I have the same exact car man I just purchased this week having a hard time getting the glove box open I have the code for too ! Any help ?
Could be the same car, whereabouts are you located? I would start with “0000”. If you’re on Facebook, join the group “6th Generation Pontiac Grand Prix Appreciation Society”. Someone there will know.
@@TomRymes Thankyou for the reply ! I’m located in Massachusetts my 1990 Pontiac Grand Prix was stored in Cali by the previous owner & brought to mass in 2016 , I will have to check out that group now thank
@@EsDripavell Excellent. Not the same car, then. I bought mine from PA and sold it to a fellow in Maine.
Not an inertia starter
100% agree with you. Except for the whole part where it very clearly is an inertia starter.
@@TomRymes Well yeh, except IT IS NOT an "inertia starter." "Bendix," starter drive, drive gear, etc. I offer my sympathies for anyone who must drive a Rover
@@fourfortyroadrunner6701Thanks for the reply. Your response was unclear and not terribly helpful, but I was able to dig around and I think I was able figure out what the precise nature of your pedantry is. Are you referring to the type of starter where one uses a crank to spin a flywheel up to speed, and the inertia of that flywheel is then applied to the engine to start it? I can’t be certain, because you don’t specify. If so, that’s interesting, but not what I mean here. I don’t know if it’s a “British English” vs “American English” thing, or just something in the British car world. However, the term “inertia starter” is generally used to indicate a Bendix drive as seen in the video, where the inertia of the driven gear is used to fling it forward along the helically-splined drive shaft of the starter motor (also frequently called a “crash starter”, as the starter gear crashes into the ring gear to engage). This is in contrast to the later “pre-engaged” starters, where the starter gear is electrically extended to engage the ring gear prior to the shaft starting to turn.
@@TomRymesi think he’s right? All the inertia starters I’ve seen have been those big ones where you turn a big crank to wind it up like some sort of transmission and then pull it out and engage the starter, look up “Panther inertia starter” you’ll see what I mean
@@Briley-gc8wn No doubt. This is one of those times where a single phrase is used to mean two different things. I’d even agree with the assertion that the large devices that rely on the inertia of a flywheel to turn the engine have a better claim to the term. For whatever reason, the British car world uses the term “inertia starter“ to refer to an electric starter motor that uses this type of gear engagement. I didn’t start that practice, and I’m certainly not about to end it. Hopefully, the inclusion of a small sports sedan in the title of the video will eliminate any confusion for people that come across this video.
Thank you, and I appreciate not hearing 15 min of pre-story
I absolutely love the interior of the 2nd gen, never giving mine up.
Had a Wolesley 1500 with an 1800 B engine fitted, 1975 two of us drove all the way from Birmingham to Malaga Spain for three weeks and back to UK. We only broke One half shaft. I t did 100mph with ease on the empty roads through France and Spain and averaged about 33mpg over the whole 3,500 mile trip and we blew everything off that raced off from the traffic lights
Lucas most high quality engineering be like
Not sure if you’re still curious a year later but I’m pretty sure that third capped plug goes to the fog light
Thank you, though the fog lights work already, so I don’t think that’s it.
I'd find another heater box. That one is too far gone. Once cleanout the inside areas of the heater vent areas can be sprayed with an undercoat and painted to keep rust from starting in the future.
Looks like an engine rebuild is needed. Those are serious metal flakes.
My thought, too.
Great video
bought one in 1990 for 475... Damn i miss that car.
Protect this car at all costs. This is the most beautiful designed car to me ; (
Finally
The poor guy who owns that car!
If it was white I would buy it, I had one in 1983 I wish I still had
